Eternity, Awareness, and Action

Abstract

Our article "Eternity" (1981), in which we presented, defended, and applied the traditional doctrine of divine eternity, prompted some criticisms that focus on difficulties in the concept of eternity itself.In the present article we summarize our original account of the doctrine before offering versions of two such criticisms and replying to them.Our replies are intended to clarify and develop further the essential notions of eternity's atemporal duration and of its relationship with time.
